Digital Landscaping

director: Sangsok Ko
original title: Digital Landscaping
country: Republic of Korea (South Korea)
year: 2013
running time: 3 min.

synopsis

A possible reconstruction of urban design and the process of planning the construction of skyscrapers – the kind of building that dominates both administrative and residential areas of Seoul. The imaginary planning process depicted here offers a critical commentary on the overcrowded metropolitan neighborhoods and the harsh scenery obscured by skyscrapers, which have become a normal everyday space.

DETAIL:
Tall buildings appear in the scene seemingly at random, their proximity emphasized by animation that takes place on something like a playing field.

 

biography
